Pages: [1] « previous next » Print Topic: Is it easy to restore a rooted Moment to the factory defaults?  (Read 4789 times) imekul Newbie Cookies: 0 Posts: 4 Is it easy to restore a rooted Moment to the factory defaults? « on: January 07, 2010, 08:45:22 PM » I was thinking of rooting my Moment, and was wondering if it is easy to reset my Moment back to the factory default ROM/firmware if necessary.  Can I just do that from the restore menu after rooting successfully?  Or is it more involved than that? Thanks!

I'm interested in the speed tweaks as well as the fixes (such as the battery life indicator).  I also would like to be able to install apps that require root access.

Oh, another thing I would like to have access to is wifi-tether.

Actually, I believe that's the stock kernel w/ the updated logo, root, and perhaps the updated modem?  I think there's a plain CJ05 in that same folder that is the stock, stock version.

Logged humanstory Newbie Cookies: 0 Posts: 5 Re: Is it easy to restore a rooted Moment to the factory defaults? « Reply #13 on: January 14, 2010, 08:56:59 PM » so the verdict here is that flashing back to the stock kernel to put a smile on the sprint techs' faces isn't painful at all?

If you can do that....going back is easy. dale Logged Please Be Kind To The Forum and Search Before Posting A New Thread See Also: Hitch Hikers Guide & Moment Wiki Pages: [1] Print « previous next » Jump to: Please select a destination: ----------------------------- Community & News ----------------------------- => Introduce Yourself => Forum Rules => Announcements => Lounge (Off-Topic) ===> Rumors ===> Other Cell Phones ===> HTC Evo 4G ===> Samsung Epic 4G ===> Samsung Intercept ----------------------------- General Category ----------------------------- => General Samsung Moment Discussion ===> Rants ===> Raves ===> Email => How To.... => Tips and Tricks => Themes, Ring Tones and Free Wall Papers => Samsung Moment Reviews and Video => Samsung Moment Accessories ----------------------------- Android 2.1 ----------------------------- => Android 2.1 Discussions => 2.1 Rooting Discussion Board ----------------------------- Software ----------------------------- => General Android discussions => Apps, apps, apps ===> Samsung moment software => Rooting => Android Developers => Software Updates   Got a new phone?
